That's where I'm at. Part of me does tire of having to work hard at sobriety and hopes to get to a place where it isn't so much work. Another part of me, however, is fearful of getting to that place.
I don't want to drink ... but I also don't want to have to frequently have not-drinking in the forefront of my mind. I've got to believe that it will get easier (already has) and eventually we'll arrive at our new normal.
Reading all the talk about DIY has been very tiring. I think I'll take a nap later this afternoon. Thanks for the excuse.
Stay sober 'Tobers!
